Chapter 51 Leaving the County
"Sister Yu, which one are you wearing?"
In front of Song Yu were the veil and hat sewn by Jiang Yunwan.
"My mother made them for me. I wear both."
"That's not necessary. Wear a veil in a carriage, and a veil in a crowded place."
As she spoke, Jiang Yunwan put a veil on Song Yu.
After putting on the veil, the teardrop mole at the corner of Song Yu's eye cannot be hidden at all.
Instead, his gaze was focused on Sister Yu's eyes.
Song Yu's eyes were shining with stars at this moment, as if they could speak. Seeing this, Jiang Yunwan felt an even greater sense of urgency in her heart.
I was afraid that I would run into Yu Jie'er's biological parents on the way to the capital.
I don’t want to let Sister Yu’s biological parents take away the treasure I raised.
Just in case, she will follow Sister Yu wherever she goes.
"Sister Yu, women should not expose their appearance outside. From now on, you must wear a veil or a hat when you go out. Do you understand?"
Song Yu nodded obediently, "Mother, I know I won't easily expose my appearance to the outside world. But you have to wear a veil to cover your face completely. I'm applying scar cream right now, so I can't let the sun get to me."
Song Mingen tilted his head to look at Jiang Yunwan's face, surprise flashing in his eyes, "Wanwan, please take a look in the mirror. The scars are getting lighter and lighter. They will definitely disappear when we get to the capital."
"Really?" Jiang Yunwan touched it subconsciously.
"Mother, this is real." Song Yu hurriedly handed over the small bronze mirror, "Look for yourself."
Jiang Yunwan carefully examined the scars on her face, and they had indeed faded considerably. "I didn't expect Sister Yu...the scar removal cream she found this time would be so effective."
Jiang Yunwan quickly glanced at the guards outside the car window and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that they were all her own people.
That was a close call, I almost let it slip.
"Wanwan, we're far away from each other, they can't hear us. In a few days we won't have to hide anymore."
Song Yu saw that her parents had put a lot of effort into raising her.
In her previous life, she felt that Chen Chunhua favored boys over girls.
In her eyes, her daughter is a waste of money. There is no point in learning to read and write. In the end, won’t she just benefit her husband’s family?
Like a few old ladies in the village, Chen Chunhua raised a daughter to be used as a betrothal gift to the men in the family to marry.
She was glad that she had good parents.
Now it seems that not only am I not my parents' child, but even my father is not a member of the Song family.
It seems that the three of them are working like slaves for the Song family.
In the previous life, my father was the most miserable. He didn't know his own life experience until he died.
I must protect and be filial to my father in this life.
Lixian
A small courtyard with two entrances.
"Master, your injuries are almost healed. When are we going back to Beijing? If we don't go back soon, you'll be reincarnated for a full month."
Mu Jingxing's face was full of black lines, and he stared at Xiao Fei with death.
Xiao Fei's face suddenly tensed up and he pulled Lu Xu over to use as a shield.
"What are you pulling for?"
Luxu's eyes quickly met Mu Jingxing's deadly gaze, and he said awkwardly, "Master... Master, the old lady sent a message saying that if you don't go back, she's afraid the play will be exposed and she won't be able to continue."
Xiao Fei stuck his head out, rested it on Luxu's shoulder, and spoke cautiously, "Yes, Master, now that we have the evidence, we can't let Prince Huai continue to act so recklessly."
Lu Xu continued, "The old lady is not in good health. If you don't come back for a long time, she might suspect that something really happened to you outside. What should we do if the old lady becomes suspicious and gets angry?"
Xiao Fei interrupted again: "And the emperor is still in the dark. You are his most beloved nephew. If it weren't for my aversion to women, he would have ordered a ghost marriage for you."
"Shut up!"
Mu Jingxing shouted loudly, and the two of them immediately fell silent.
"You're getting more and more ridiculous. Alright, let's set off back to Beijing tomorrow."
"Then let's go and clean it up quickly."
Xiao Fei danced with joy and quickly left with everyone.
Seeing the two of them leave, Mu Jingxing took out a Buddhist bead bracelet from his arms.
The look that was strange to him but very familiar to him suddenly appeared in his mind.
The girl must have known him before.
He had a feeling it couldn't be wrong.
Mu Jingxing played with the bracelet and muttered to himself, "It seems there is no chance to return you to your master."
The next day, Mu Jingxing and his group left Li County at noon, and Song Yu and others arrived in Li County at noon.
"Miss, look, we've arrived in Li County. I wonder if that very good-looking Mu... well."
Song Yu blocked Bai Lan's mouth and said, "Please keep your voice down."
Song Yu was in his carriage at the moment. "My father has very good ears. What if he hears it?"
Just now, in my parents' carriage, my father lectured me for a long time.
When you arrive in the capital, stay away from foreign men, especially those who are good-looking.
She said they were all scammers who targeted pretty girls of her age and then kidnapped them.
"Miss, I was wrong. I promise not to speak loudly in the future."
"Just be careful next time... Not next time, but you must be careful with your words and actions, especially when you're in the capital. The Jiang family isn't just any ordinary family, they place even greater emphasis on etiquette. We'll also encounter many wealthy families in the capital, especially the powerful. If we speak inappropriately, we could get into big trouble."
"I heard from my mother that if a servant in a wealthy family offends a noble, at the very least, they will be beaten with a stick and sold, or at the worst, their necks will be cut open."
Bai Lan was so frightened that her face turned pale. "I don't want to be killed."
"Don't be afraid. We are in the capital now. It's generally safer to see more and talk less."
As they were talking, the convoy stopped and it was noon. The Song family went into Li County and found a restaurant to have dinner.
"Sister Yu, what did you say in the carriage just now about beautiful things?"
"...The big locust tree outside the county gate is very beautiful."
Song Yu sat down calmly, and Bai Lan lowered her eyes and sat aside to serve Song Yu.
The master has amazing hearing!
Chen Chunhua was old and had just recovered from a serious illness, so she felt sleepy after lunch.
Song Mingzhu wanted to make sure everything went smoothly, so she had to give Zhang Yuan and the others enough time to make adequate preparations. So she said to Jiang Yunwan, "Sister-in-law, my mother is tired and doesn't have the energy to travel any further. How about staying in Li County today and getting up early tomorrow to head north?"
Seeing Chen Chunhua's bad complexion, Jiang Yunwan was in no hurry to go to Yunyin Banshan to perform, so she said, "It's still a long way to the capital, and we can't afford to waste half a day. Our mother must not get tired. There's an inn two streets away from the city gate when we first came in. Let's stay there."
"good."
"Miss." Bai Lan became smarter and whispered in Song Yu's ear, "Would you like to go shopping in Li County?"
"No, just rest in the inn."
Now on the way to the capital, Song Yu didn't want to cause any trouble.
She wants to be with her parents all the time.
"Miss, are you really not going out? What if that Mr. Mu is still in Li County?"
Song Yu said, "Whether he is in Li County or not has nothing to do with me. He is just a wounded person I treated."
"How can it not be related? Mr. Mu didn't pay the consultation fee, so we lost a hundred taels for nothing. Besides, the Inner Yuan Pills that Miss gave him were made from the finest herbs."
